How much does IF make per month?

Based on our ML-calibrated revenue forecast, IF earns approximately $1.2M/mo. This is a US-storefront-equivalent estimate; global revenue can be several times larger for internationally-distributed apps. See the methodology page for the full formula and confidence bands.

With estimated build cost $175K and monthly revenue $1.2M, IF looks highly profitable — pays back its build investment in under a month at the current run-rate. Profitability also depends on paid-acquisition spend and refund rate which the public model doesn't see.

How many users does IF have?

Estimated audience: ~125K lifetime downloads, ~18K monthly active users, and ~6K daily active users. Derived from ratings count × category installs-per-rating × age decay. US-storefront-equivalent — global audience can be 5-10× larger for internationally-distributed apps.
